Just the one please and something that would work for a grown up man too.

I know 8 (yes 8!) Raphaels aged 3 and under.
I also know of 4 Ezras aged 2 and under and 1 pregnancy who will be Ezra if it's a boy.

I don't know if that makes the names more or less cool but they're certainly not rare where I live at the moment.

Personally, out of those mentioned above- I like Alex, Rory, James, (there's something that feels inherently cool about these names and they're not 'try hard'). Also I really really like Asa.

I also love the name Rafael (my husband doesn’t unfortunately). I honestly wouldn’t think about a name being cool when choosing it though. My sons name was quite uncommon when I gave it to him, I knew one adult and one child. Fast forward 10 years and I know another 11 children with it.

Jethro

I bloody love Jethro. Husband is a cockney though so couldn’t use it as i can’t bear “jeff-ro”

I also like biblical names like Isiah and Azrael, Caleb.

Can't believe no one has said Sid! Sid the brave toddler, Sid the handsome cool teen! Gah, I need to keep working on my DH to name our boy this Grin

Grin PMSL @ Conrad and Quentin

I know both, in their 50s, and whilst both are lovely they are both about as far from cool as it's possible to be Grin

just reading through the thread and my kids are all named now, (wish I had thought of a thread like this!) but I have to agree with some of the names Raphael, Victor,. I also would second Reuben and throw Edgar into the mix

I wanted to call Ds River Tiger Moon but Dp was having none of it.
